What it is

Award winning writer/illustrator Lynda Barry has moved into new territory- that of the part memoir, part how-to guide to creating art. With thought provoking questions about life and the world to get teens inspired to write, and hundreds of collages of illustrations, photographs, paintings, and watercolors this will be a sure hit with teens and tweens that are interested in delving into self expression through words and art.
